Setting reasonable boundaries, such as having time to themselves, should not drive a wedge between relatives. If it does their relationships isn’t healthy.
The brother here sounds overbearing and regardless of whether the boyfriend stays with OP he needs to stop allowing him to control his life. I agree that family should get a bit more leeway than other people but being related to someone isn’t a free pass to treat them however you want.
